DYNASTY IN MOTION Suspended Cebu Gov. Gwen Garcia is in fighting mode as she addresses the people of Oslob town to launch a briefing center for whaleshark watchers. She earlier left the Cebu Capitol where she had been holed up since Dec. 19, 2012. She was joined in this out-of-town sortie by her brother, Rep. Pablo John Garcia, who is running for governor and their father, Rep. Pablo Garcia. TONEE DESPOJO / CEBU DAILY NEWS

CEBU CITY—Gov. Gwen Garcia thought she could sneak out from the governor’s office in the Capitol, where she had been holed up for over a month in defiance of a suspension order from Malacañang.

She did, but only to discover 16 hours later that the office had been padlocked.

“No one is allowed inside the premises, except upon further orders. For strict compliance,” acting Gov. Agnes Magpale said in a one-page memorandum.

Garcia was in Oslob town, 117 kilometers south of Cebu, to inaugurate the briefing center of the Oslob Whale Watching program in Barangay (village) Tan-awan when she learned that her office had been padlocked, on orders of Magpale, by provincial administrator Eduardo Habin.

The Office of the President, upon the recommendation of the Department of the Interior and Local Government, has ordered Garcia’s relief for grave abuse of authority for usurping the powers of the vice governor.

Power cutoff

The governor, however, has refused to leave since Dec. 19 last year and even dared the police to forcibly remove her. Her removal could only happen “over my dead body,” Garcia had said.

Habin, who was escorted by policemen, closed down the office past 2 p.m. during her absence. In less than two hours, the power supply was cut off and the entrance was cordoned off with a police yellow line.

Bess Francia, Garcia’s secretary, told the Philippine Daily Inquirer that she and 10 other employees, as well as two lawyers, were still inside the office when the policemen came.

“Once we go outside, we cannot go back. There is a horde of policemen preventing us from coming back,” Francia said.

They would remain inside the office because they believe that the police and Magpale were “stepping on their rights” as provincial employees and citizens, she said.

However, at 8:30 p.m. Wednesday night, the police told them to leave, and they did without any resistance.

Oslob trip

Sources told the Inquirer that Garcia sneaked out of her office at about 10:30 p.m. on Tuesday, her face covered as she boarded the vehicle of her brother, Rep. Pablo John Garcia of Cebu’s third district.

The governor slept in her house in the city before she left for Oslob on Wednesday morning for the inauguration of the briefing center, the sources said.

On Jan. 20, Garcia left her office to dance in the Sinulog Grand Parade at the Cebu City Sports Center grandstand. She went back later and stayed in her office until Tuesday night.

During a news conference in Oslob, Garcia told reporters that she would go back to her office after her visit to the town.

“Of course, … that’s still the office of the governor and I am the duly elected governor. No overacting governor can ever take that away. The people elected me as governor. The office of the governor stands,” she said.

Her mood, however, changed when a reporter informed her that her office had already been padlocked by Magpale. It took her three seconds before she could reply.

She asked her brother, Byron, to verify the report. But later, she said it would be up to the Cebuanos to judge Magpale for her actions.

Political plans

Magpale is running for vice governor under the Liberal Party, with Hilario Davide III as standard-bearer.

Garcia will switch places with Pablo John who is running for governor under One Cebu. She will seek the congressional seat in the third district.

Garcia condemned Magpale’s closure order move and warned that she would file charges if any of her personal belongings left in the office is lost.

“I would just wish to remind Magpale that I still have personal effects inside the office. As you have seen, there are furniture, paintings and others. We have an inventory of these things and have taken footages. Since they have the key (to the padlock), they will be facing robbery charges (if these are lost),” she added.

Magpale told reporters that she had been tolerating Garcia’s presence in the Capitol for over a month.

The governor’s move to slip out was a mockery of the President’s order, Magpale said over TV5.

She said Garcia’s supporters were also staying at the Capitol’s offices and used these as sleeping quarters and for doing their laundry.

PADLOCKED The main door of the office of suspended Cebu Gov. Gwen Garcia in the capitol was padlocked Wednesday morning after she left it the night before. Police boarded up the door, locking out Garcia. LITO TECSON / CEBU DAILY NEWS

Hungry for power?

Pablo John condemned Magpale’s action, saying this only showed her “hunger for power.”

He recalled that the vice governor claimed that services in the Capitol were not disrupted and that President Aquino himself remarked during his visit here that there was no standoff.

“If the operation in the Capitol is normal, if there are no disruptions, if there is no standoff, why was it necessary to padlock the governor’s office,” he asked. “(It is because) she (Magpale) is greedy for power. She even wanted to be called governor, not only ‘acting’ (governor).”

Pablo John said his sister would never step down from office.

“The governor just stepped out of the governor’s office, but she is never stepping down as governor,” he said. With a report from Ador Mayol, Inquirer Visayas

Huh, is Garcia still in the capitol? Up to now there’s no TRO from the CA. Isn’t that enough clue for her that she should leave her palatial office and serve out the suspension? Gov. Magpale was authorized and within legal boundary to order the office locked to once and for all put a stop to the spectacle caused by this stubbornness. The capitol is owned by the government and not by anyone much less Gwen. If she wants to she could continue holding out at her home after all it’s just sympathy she’s after at.

Agreed! She is a priso caballero. The Office of the Governor is constructively an extension of the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center (CPDRC). She is by now a fugitive of justice.

The Garcias criticized Magpale for her order to padlock the governor’s office.

furniture and paintings in the office and that she could be charged with
robbery if these things would be lost.

True to her word, the suspended governor left the capitol building over her dead body. She’s now a “Walking Dead” prepping to grace UNA’s inaugural campaign sorty in the coming days.

We have an inventory of these things and have taken footages. Since they have the key (to the padlock), they will be facing robbery charges (if these are lost),” she added.

Pablo John, I think you got it wrong, it is not Magpale who is hungry for power but your sister Gwen is. She is the one refusing to step down and obey the suspension order from the Government. Gwen is the hungry for power. Nakakatawa talaga itong mga Garcias ng Cebu.

Yes Pablo John you are correct in stating that Magpale is only ‘Acting’ Governor but on the other hand your sister is ‘Suspended’ Governor. Take your pick, acting or suspended.

To the editor, it is not ‘whale watching’, it is whale shark watching. There is a huge difference. A whale is a mammal whereas a whale shark is a fish.

UrHONOR

WHAT I know, THE SHARK whale watching is most often done at the BATASANG PAMBANSA during “feeding” sessions where sharks are fed with pork in a barrel. There are also regular sightings by the Manila Bay at what is known as the house of the seneyt where fewer but humongous ones frolic freely in expensive suits and elegant barongs.

people elect gwen garcia to follow philippine laws but if the governor gwen herself DO NOT FOLLOW PHILIPPINE LAW THEN GWEN GARCIA WILL HAVE TO BE TAKEN DOWN FOR NOT FOLLOWING PHILIPPINE LAW – GWEN GARCIA CANNOT REASON THAT PEOPLE ELECTED HER SO SHE CAN STAY —- THIS GWEN GARCIA HAVE A TWISTED MIND THAT SHE CAN DO WHAT SHE WANT AS LONG AS SHE IS ELECTED BY THE PEOPLE — GWEN YOU ARE WRONG TO THINK YOU CAN DO ANYTHING WHILE SITTING AS GOVERNOR — YOU STILL NEED TO FOLLOW PHILIPPINE LAWS OR ELSE YOU WILL BE IN TROUBLE LIKE YOU ARE NOW

She already gave word that she would leave only “OVER MY DEAD BODY”. I guess that means she’s already dead. As she looks zombified by botox I’m not exactly surprised.

Turns out she can’t hang on to her own words. TWICE.

“I would just wish to remind Magpale that I still have personal effects inside the office.”

Great sense of entitlement: if the Capitol isn’t her free hotel, it’s her personal locker. Somebody ought to kick this kapalmuks zombie to the curb.

Vertumnus

Well it’s about time! How can anyone tolerate an elected official ignoring the rule of law. She basically puts herself above the law she is suppose to follow and obey. They should make the suspension permanent as it is clear Garcia is law unto herself. Time to clean up house in Cebu!

Pablo John is so out of touch with reality, his sense of self importance clouds whatever good judgement left in that family!

bogli_anakdami

she looks more like a cross between a donkey & an orangutan, in skinny jeans.. ugh…

It is truly unbelievable. This suspended governor made her capital office like it was a Holiday Inn annex? The worst part I believe is, government allowed it to pester without doing what it is suppose to do which was – throw her out of the office while she is suspended? Bakit ba kung sino itong dapat na role model, sila pa ang nagpapakita na dahil sila ay makapangyarihan, walang makakagalaw sa kanila? This is an outrageous situation and I am glad the local authorities has finally resolved the impasse.

she really missed her chance of redemption. it’s really too late for her now. she could have at least earned some degree of respect if not sympathy from the yellow hoard that is attacking and humiliating her from all sides had she, from the beginning accepted her fate with an open heart and left office then fought out her case in the courtroom fair and square, that is, if she has any?

i hope she learned her lesson not to trust her fellow politician especially her opponent because of all people, being a third term governor, she could have known better that going against the wishes of a powerful sitting president is exactly not a very good idea.

probably she thought magpale would tolerate her actions like what happened last sinulog (where she danced her heart out) and look the other way while surreptitiously sneaked out of her cozy hideout in the dead of the night. well she got it all wrong.

shameful downfall from a once mighty political career indeed but i hope she finds happiness outside the public service.

That’s what she gets for being arrogant,rule of law must be respected at all times not rule of her regardless of who she is “a queen”I care less.

http://profile.yahoo.com/ERCCN5ANNNF7BEBFMYXR6ALGRU Dan

P-Pinoy was elected president overwhelmingly by the filipino people in an honest fair election, the suspension order is legitimate and therefore that freaking b*tch mummy looking Garcia should just have left the capitol with no funfare. The motherf*cking Garcia clan thought the province of Cebu is their own personal property, GET THE F*CK

this low life gwen garcia should instead hold office at Mandaluyong mental hospital, that is where she rightfully belong

Garcia and her family have dominated Cebu as a political
dynasty for so long and they have gotten so rich for it. I think the Cebuanos
need to rid themselves of this political dynasty and give others a chance for a

Kudos Acting Gov. Magpale for finally locking-out the abusive, law-defying, barefaced Gwen Garcia who’s becoming a huge embarrassment to the people of Cebu.

Puretuts

true…. if Agnes Magpale is power hungry she would have run for Governor and not Davide.

It’s funny how people would point a finger at others and say they are hungry for power when their actions show they themselves are just the same.

Just take for instance the “Balili-gate” which Gwen bought for P98.9 million wherein
3/4 of that is under water. She is facing a case in the Ombudsman for that questionable land purchase. And what she did to cover up the anomaly was to have it covered with
limestone with a P27 million contract. She still has plenty of questions to answer and the
Cebuanos know that the Garcias are out to enrich themselves at the expense of the poor Cebuanos who are just used as their “bridge” to amass their pockets with money.
They are insatiable when it comes to money!

During the reign of the country’s number 1 khawatan queen mekeni, a man named Winston Garcia got appointed chairman of GSIS. With that appointment came problems with union’s restlessness and exposes on spending galore using contributor’s money. A week will not come to pass without this man’s name mentioned in newspapers. Winston Garcia also figured in the power fight between Meralco and GMA operatives.

Now, with another Garcia hitting news and hitting it hard due to her truculent stance in wanting to make her capital office extension of her residence, we now have a better view of what this clan is all about. Cebu is a beautiful city it is sad to see it being ran down the gutter by this clan who seems not to know when to stop. For the good not only for the people of Cebu but of the Filipinos, please use your voting right to make the necessary change in Cebu’s political landscape.

He is also head administrator of the offices associated with the judiciary, more specifically the courts.)

Not that I agree with what they did, but I think for the GMA part he had to make a judicial decision, else we fall into a constitutional crisis. I believe they should have declared a revolutionary government (Erap was extra-constitutionally deposed). However, in addition to those who really wanted to put Gloria in power, many were concerned about the chaos that would ensue.

How are personal effects government property?

jseesus

it’s goverment property, you don’t put your personal belongings in a govement property like it’s your own house. so whatever things even sanitary napkins found inside a goverment own structure is the property of the PEOPLE OF THE PHILIPPINES.

http://www.dafk.net/what/ Kilabot ng mga Balahibo

no its not. saan batas mo nakita yan.

as long as you hold the receipt and the government hasn’t paid you or used its extra ordinary powers, it is still yours.

the only exception is if you relinquish ownership. like put it in a trashcan (implied), verbal(explicit), or posted it (trnasfered or abandoned).

“Could you imagine if all who left and lost their cellphones, jewelry, money, or any valuables they brought in willingly into their office will be charged against management?”

Agreed.

BUT the point of the contention is:

“it’s goverment property, you don’t put your personal belongings in a govement property like it’s your own house. so whatever things even sanitary napkins found inside a goverment own structure is the property of the PEOPLE OF THE PHILIPPINES.”

where Jeebus original post says it now becomes the property of the government of the philippines.

Coming back to your post. While management IS not repsonsible for your personal effects, management can never own it. Secondly, if the owner claims it, then management will have to return it. Lest management is willfully withholding someone else’s property.

“Sinong nagsabi sa yong dalhin mo yang mga abubot mo sa opisina?”

Why else would you put your own furniture in a governments office. LOL

http://www.dafk.net/what/ Kilabot ng mga Balahibo

You dont. You put little things like paintings, knick knacks, picture frames, go-bags, and things that could make the little space given you, warmer, more personable.

Although, I remember a relative of mine, asked for my mom’s old sofa, simply because his office is a little too bare. And boy it was bare. Of course it was an unspoken understanding that the furniture would be part of the office even when he is re-assigned. I suppose why you’re wondering the point, hehe. its just to answer “Why else would you put your own furniture in a governments office.”

she really wanted to abandon her “holed-in-the-office” tactic as it is getting obvious that it is no longer effective in gaining public sympathy and media mileage. Now, her saying that she intends to go back is nothing but a face-saving statement

After running GSIS to the ground and milking it dry, he avoided the limelight and enjoyed the fruits of his labor. He isn’t there in that picture, but there is a big possibility that he was also there in Oslob enjoying the beach and watching the whale sharks too.

Pray he’s still there on the beach, so we can make an appeal to those people who can communicate with these creatures, something like a shark whisperer, to whisper something to those shark’s ears while pointing at Winston.

Suspended governor Gwen is much more power hungry for not following lawful order to leave her office . It should have been very nice if she just follow the suspension order to show to people that she is law abiding politician and not power hungry. This family is practicing political dynasty and must not be elected or relected. Vote wisely in the coming election by rejecting political dynasty!

Bunot-Supo

Pablo John is asking why was it necessary to padlock the governor’s office. Pablo John and the family know very well the cause of all these trouble in the capitol – Gwen. Had Gwen obeyed the lawful order, they could have already a decision from the CA by now. The CA must have treated their petition not filed with clean hands. They are asking for a legal order and at the same time defying a legal order. They came to CA with unclean hands.

No, Gwen does not have the sympathy of the people. She violated the rule of law by refusing to comply with the suspension order. A governor’s duty is to execute the law. How can a governor carry out that duty when he/she cannot follow the law? The Garcias think they are above the law.

me thinks stiupid gwen had to create a mess, a chance to be talked about again…she was already left out in the cold, walang pumapansin…the lock-out is a welcome thing for her to be in the limelight again. the cebuanos should not bleed the issue dry..should leave her hi and dry from hereon if they want her to suffer her suspension rightfully so. cast her to oblivion please…that is her proper place after all her kurakot which she has to answer to in the courts

Look closely at the picture and see who are at the stage: Gwen Garcia the suspended governor who won’t leave her office. The old Cebu cong. pablo Garcia and Cebu cong. Pablo John Garcia who said her sister would never step down from office and when Acting Governor Magpale padlocked Gwen’s office he condemned it saying it only showed her hunger for power.

Hahaha some guy. “If the operation in the Capitol is normal, if there are no disruptions, if there is no standoff, why was it necessary to padlock the governor’s office,” he asked. Bobo.

Because of a suspension order from Malacañang? That good enough reason? Whoever votes for idiots deserve to get the monkeys they get in their government.

Only in the Philippines. Because your term is over you’ll switch with your brother just to stay in power. What a joke. They think of themselves like royalty.

Gwenn Garcia is a joke! Is she really serious in sticking to her office as Cebu Gov despite her relief which is nevertheless in accordance with law? She’s really a joke! Cebuanos, you want to be the butt of jokes by having her elected again to office? Although in a different post? Joke talaga, hahaha!

Look who is talking. Is this a line of thinking of the Garcia’s?I never think how feebled minded these Garcia family presuming that they own Cebu and wanted to lord it over. These bunch of arrogants should undergo psychiatric exams and be exorcised.

The CBCP should also expose the stinking Garcia political dynasty of Cebu.
The Cebuanos must by now realize the ARROGANCE of the Garcia political dynasty.
They treat Cebu like their private property. Parang mga alinta kung kumapit sa kapangyarihan.
EXPOSE THE CORRUPT GARCIA POLITICAL DYNASTY.

garcia, osmena, magpale-almiendras..lahat ito mga bulok sa cebu

Fulpol

VP Binay used to locked himself inside the Makati City hall wearing military uniform… Garcia just followed the style of VP Binay…

she prefer to locked out now, time to campaign… how could she campaign when inside the room?

that locked out, benefited Garcia….Cebuanos will just throw their support to Garcia… not to Magpale or Davide.. who can be charged as power grabber…

Here is another political dynasty family. Lets see the Archbishop of Cebu lobby against all of them during the election circus, or will he choose to have selective amnesia as to the dynasties of his own area?? and as usual, cebuanos will complain about dynasties from other areas whilst hypocritically supporting one from their own province.

THE GARCIAS THINK THE CEBUANOS ARE THAT STUPID..HUNGER FOR POWER???LOOK AT THEM(D GARCIAS)..BROTHER AND SISTER AND FATHER WANTS TO CONTROL CEBU…CEBUANO’S WAKE UP…THE GARCIA’S THINK THE CEBUANOS ARE THAT STUPID TO STILL ELECT NOW THE BROTHER FOR GOV. AND MADAM GWEN FOR CONG. HOW STUPID CAN WE BE.

Gaba!

Hey Pablo, your sister was suspended, meaning she isn’t governor while the suspension is in effect. So in theory, vice-governor Magpale is the de facto governor. How is that for an explanation?

You won’t get elected Governor so better figure out another way to make a living. Same goes for Gwen. Cebuano can’t be that dense that they can’t see how the Garcia’s are monopolizing political power in Cebu

Ang Kapal !!
Nagwarning pa siya tungkol sa personal effects na iniwan sa gov’s office.
She had no right to occupy that office after December. She should be charged in court for not complying w/ a legitimate order to step down.
Cebuanos, you’ve seen the recent actuations of Ms Garcia and her brother – you’ll be the butt of jokes if they are still in power after the elections.

The Garcias should be kicked out of Cebu politics for lording it so long now. They supported GMA and remained her allies for many years. Very corrupt these Garcias. Where’s that arrogant Winston Garcia of GSIS ? He’s not charged of anything?

superdad_arc

Just go to Porter Marina at Liloan, Cebu, pangutana pila kabuok yatch ang mga Garcia, especially Winston’s. Then ask if naa na ba na before they entered politics (and GSIS). Docking a yatch at Porter’s is Php 50,000/mo (that’s chicken). Not even some rich businessmen in Cebu have it.

This is a classic example of the proverb “Matalino man daw ang matsin, napaglalangan din” LMAO! First, they let her come back with no obstacle to the Governor’s office after her second rate dancing (feeling like a queen) at the sinulog festival, making her believed that she’s free to go in and out whenever she wishes. PNoy, Mar Roxas and Agnes Magpale outwitted and outmaneuvered the Garcia’s and the 3 UNA stalwarts Binay, Estrada and Enrile. They’re now scratching their skulls and saying we’re no match to PNoy and them. Good strategy, Mr. President, Mr. Mar Roxas and Gov. Agnes Magpale.

The coming election will show the people’s decision on her case. But in other countries, noble people resigns quickly when their names are tarnished with doubt. But in the Philippines, the official asks the team if they want to leave, step down or resign, even after the president orders

Sa Pilipinas:
– if your suspended of wrong doing..you cling to power and padlocked yourself to your office
.- They write their own Memoirs, try to twist history on their favor.
– Magsumbat ng ‘kahoy’ na ginamit sa bahay ng partner niya.
– Put on a big smile on his face as if nothing happen.

You also hold lavish Xmas and New Year’s Eve parties with your friends and families inside the public owned office at the cost of public coffers.

Sa ikakaunlad ng Cebu, forget the Garcias this election. Go with the Liberal Party for the continuous economic growth. Opposition will just stop the good programs of Pnoy so they can use it to discredit the president.

Smart move by Garcia. Its the start of the elections campaign. How can she campaign if she’s holed up inside the Capitol? She needs to get out. Magpale gave her the right excuse to stay out and campaign. Look there were no violent reactions and retaliatory movements from the side of the Gracia’s and supporters after the padlocking. They did not come marching with throngs of supporters down the capitol demanding to get inside. She just went home. Now it’s campaign time. She can claim persecution, she can claim being a victim of power grab. It’s Magpale who made the crucial mistake of being the one who ordered the locking up of the doors. Magpale stepped up to the villains role quite comfortably. Filipinos love drama, if Garcia could play this right she would become the persecuted victim. While Filipinos love drama, they most certainly love combacks! underdogs/victims who fight back. I will not be surprised if Garcia wins the congressional seat.

She can claim whatever she wants but it still remains that she is suspended.she is not a comeback kid rather she showed that she does not know how to follow the law . She cannot portray as persecuted victim .She just showed how annoying she is.

WOW! This is really a wow. She’s been suspended since Dec.19, the president suspended her and she was allowed to function? She sneaked out “to inaugurate the briefing center of the Oslob Whale Watching program”? KAPAL naman ng mukha nya.

Mattino2011

My sources say that was intentional..Graceful exit, coz she knows she can’t stay there foreever. She was anticipating a forceful act from Pnoy’s people. Which she could use later in the campaign.Matalino mga Pnoy Team …di pinatulan un expectations ng UNA

If only decency is a commodity you can buy from a drugstore, I will admonish this Gwen Garcia to buy and take tons of it. She really needs to wake up, Seriously. These kind of people who messes up the government should not be allowed to hold any government position let alone sweep any government office.

RHumabon

Decency and Humility will dawn on her once she’s behind a cell wearing a “designer outfit” marked “Muntinlupa National Penitentiary” – serving a life term for Plunder of taxpayer funds. But first, she has to be defeated & humiliated in her Congressional run in the May Elections, by decent & God-fearing Cebuano voters. Ditto with her brother who is running for Governor. . . It would be a great chapter in Philippine history that Cebu is the 1st province ever to have booted out a political dynasty of Garcia’s. How about it, decendants of Lapu-Lapu?

Even in the photo she stinks. I bet in her self-incarceration she doesn’t even use the toilet paper! Now that you’re out, use it! you …dumb….HORSE!

Calling the attention of speaker Belmonte or Senate president Enrile: Would someone please file an urgent resolution to transfer the CROCODILE FARM IN PALAWAN TO CEBU so the crocs will be more at ease living with the members of the Garcia dynasty.

Also offer free permanent resident cards to the crocs in Makati, San Juan and Cagayan and most of all, of course to the king & queen of them all , Lolong at La Vista and lolang at the veterans.

Makati, San Juan & Cagayan are the home turfs of the 3 Stooges of UNA. The three are the future nightmares of the Philippines if not already.

LMFAO. Yan ang mga UNA: Always want to have their cake, and eat it too.

I am just wondering why Pablo John is blaming it on Magpale. A bar topnotcher at that – he is just putting aside ‘sound reasoning’ to defend a dynasty, a sign of not ‘letting go’ of capitol for personal interest – even if he steps on the law. What a pity.

Filipinos are moron, gullible not well educated. They finished higher education but still as stubborn as donkeys and clueless.

isellnuts

I agree with you 100% and they don’t have common sense at all.

batangpaslit

ahahaha…so, you are an American G.I. Joe too? prejudiced against the Filipinos for fighting the American colonizers?

tom cranmer

What little brain you must have.
You attribute the mistakes of a few to a race.
As for common sense, you purposely ignored the hundreds of Filipinos who are recognized here and abroad for their high level of competence, work ethics and dedication to work.
Shame.

batangpaslit

Whom are you referring Joe?
Who are the gullible ones? Who got the higher education?
Be specific.
Why paint a broad brush by falsely accusing the innocent and struggling Filipinos?
What race do you come from?
Are you Hispanic?
Latino?
or
you are American guy, like G.I. Joe as portrayed in the war film?
That is why you are prejudiced against the poor Filipinos that you Americans abused and oppressed?

Hello Joe you must be crazy portraying all of us to be stupid. What about you, you must also be stupid by saying stupid things in here. Do yourself a favor get out of this room you are not welcome here.

Before you start commenting on Filipinos’ level of education, go re-educate yourself on the basics of grammar first. Some Filipinos can even give you pointers on sentence construction, as well as the subject and verb agreement, even if they are not as you say “well educated”.

Is this is the daughter of the crook who used to run GSIS? Looks like birds of the same feather have the same genes.

This governor is the sister of the crook and arroyo crony who used to run gsis.

She is also sister to a congressman and daughter to another congressman. Aarrggh!

What about that Gen. Garcia who is also a crook now jailed in Muntinglupa. Are they birds of the same genes too? Please give me an answer I’m dying to know the truth behind all these crooked people.

the provincial administrator, whom is he or she taking the order?
from Gov Gwen
or
from Vic Gov Magpale?

” If the operation in the Capitol is normal, if there are no disruptions,
if there is no standoff, why was it necessary to padlock the governor’s
office,” he asked. Pablo John Garcia hangal man tingali ka? It’s all because of Gwen, your sister, who is disrupting the normal flow of the Capitol, that’s the reason why.

Davide III? Is he the son of the former CJ or the CJ himself? Gov. Gwen said she will file robbery charges to VG Magpale if anything is lost among her personal effects in the governor’s office such as furniture and paintings. Paintings? Winston Garcia’s paintings? Will somebody inventory the paintings in the GSIS office?

tarikan

These Garcias of Cebu, are they by any chance related to that Gen. Carlos “Ilong” Garcia? I have a Garcia friend but he is of an honest variety, Sergio my golfing buddy hahaha!

He he he while she was secretly sneaking out in a dark night many of her supporters whispered to Gov. Magpale for what she did. And that’s the end of it.

desi derata

I am not a violent person but I have this feeling that I am inclined to see or hear somebody slapping the face of the writer of this article. Why would she put, “…in defiance of a suspension order from Malacañang”.

The nasty governor violated the provision of the Constitution, hence being a local government official, she is within the domain of the DLG.

If Sec Roxas is the Palace or if the order of the Ombudsman is construed to be a handiwork of the President, then this country is lost and deserve noting except ridicule and ostracism.

Sec Roxas could be a Cabinet member but quoting “the Palace” in every event involving the Executive Branch shroud the whole affair as a detestable pleasure of a monolithic dictatorship.

There were periods in our history that hindsight would dictate us that words written or quoted conflagrated a tense situation, and should have been repressed or just kept unspoken. Had it not that some fools yelled “Mendiola, Mendiola!” after a peaceful but animated rally in that fateful afternoon, lives of individuals could have been spared. For the writers of news article, please cease in abusing your freedom. Give us the plain truth, unadorned with your prejudice or hatred.

Wow, I guess the cebuanos are now transformed from Klepto to Maniac. I guess Gwen and Magpale deserved respects. It was you guys who voted them to office. What happen to you people, post a better criticism. The article posted is about politics and not about sex. Matay mong mga tawhana na manyak na man mo nga pati mga idaran inyo pa gyud na pantasyahan. Behave!!!!

look at this picture… they’re all really UGLY, aren’t they? UGLY attitudes, UGLY behaviors towards the people, and most importantly, UGLY FACES! gosh, what a poor family. God must have been gossiping when He made this family.

ngano wa man ni ma edit? Ceguro the editor did not understand what it meant.

wawa2172

I am a cebuano too and I am embarrassed by what you alfredinsik said to a cebuana. You may not like Gwen but it is not how to treat a lady. I hope you are not a married person dahil kawawa ang asawa mo pag nabulyawan mo siya. Do you say same thing to your wife? If so, you are such a dirty animal. To inquirer forum administrator, you have blocked my post when I do a constructive criticism on the current admin but you let alfredinsik very dirty comment on a cebusana.

I guess criticism should not hit below the belt as some posted dirty
sexual comments on Gwen and Magpale. They don’t deserved it especially
that they were voted into office by the people of Cebu. If it was a
mistake that you people have voted them to office then criticized them
as with respect to their governance and personalities. To the inquirer
forum admin please be strict on post with sexual content rather than
blocking post are constructive criticism against government officials.
Its unfair to us critics who are blocked because you don’t like what we
say negatively against inquirer supported politician. I am an avid
supporter of Inquirer but I hope my favorite paper wont turn to be like
ABS-CBN network. Sana huwag.
